‘Saturday Night Live’ Teases Its 50th Anniversary With Enough Nostalgia to Make You Feel Ancient

Buy Me A Coffee

Saturday Night Live (a.k.a. your favorite reason to stay up late) is turning 50 in 2025! Yes, 50. Half a century of live sketches, questionable wigs, and enough celebrity impressions to fill an encyclopedia. To celebrate this monumental occasion, NBC has whipped up a special airing on Sunday, February 16, after what will surely be a weekend of non-stop “remember when” moments.

The excitement started bubbling on Sunday (December 29), when NBC dropped a teaser that’s basically a time machine for your funny bone. This little nugget of joy is stuffed with vintage clips featuring some of the most legendary cast members to ever grace the SNL stage.

First up? Amy Poehler, looking as if she’s here to introduce herself… and then convince you to invest in some wacky scheme. Joining her in this nostalgia parade are Seth Meyers (probably still plotting Weekend Update one-liners), Tracy Morgan (likely thinking about how to turn this into a Shark Tank pitch), Kate McKinnon (queen of quirky characters), Andy Samberg (who probably sang something right after the clip ended), Kenan Thompson (still holding the title of SNL’s longest-running cast member), Phil Hartman (the OG of comedic gold), and Kristin Wiig (no doubt ready to whip out her Target Lady voice).

But wait, there’s more! The teaser isn’t just a star-studded roll call; it’s a greatest-hits mixtape of some of the most outrageous, ridiculous, and downright iconic characters from the show’s sprawling history. Think of it as the SNL multiverse, but instead of superheroes, we’ve got cowbell enthusiasts and those who really can’t handle spicy food.

So, what do we know about the big anniversary special? Not a lot, except it’s going to be packed with surprises, laughs, and maybe even a few live bloopers for old time’s sake. In the meantime, stay tuned because as soon as NBC spills the beans, you can bet we’ll be here to spill them right along with you.
